BicyclingHub.com Grand Opening party this Friday

Our friends at BicyclingHub.com have moved their retail store and they’re inviting everyone to a big party this Friday to help celebrate. See details below:

BicyclingHub.com’s Grand Opening Celebration of its new Portland retail space in Inner SE Portland on Friday, April 15th is planned with a decidedly bike-themed flavor in mind. With free beer from Hopworks Urban Brewery and delicious treats courtesy of Portland Pedal Power (delivered by bike, of course!), special discounts and one-day sales on cycling apparel and accessories (including locally based manufacturers Castelli, Retro Image Apparel and Showers Pass), and the great Classic Paris Roubaix 2011 race aired on our new showroom floor, it’s going to a be a great way to GEAR UP for Spring.

BicyclingHub.com recently received a Bicycle Friendly Business Award for its efforts to promote and encourage bicycling from the League of American Bicyclists at the National Bike Summit in Washington, D.C. It proudly joins other Oregon-based Bicycle Friendly Businesses, including Bike Gallery, Alta Planning + Design, Community Cycling Center, King Cycle Group, Travel Oregon and The Standard, who are committed to creating a more Bicycle-Friendly America.

With the opening of our new retail space at 642 SE Stark St., located near two main corridors for bicycle commuters in the city’s well-mapped bicycle route network, walk-in business is expected to increase significantly during the 2011 cycling season, as well as online traffic from across the nation.

The Grand Opening Celebration is open to everyone in the larger Portland-area bicycling community and will provide an opportunity for those passionate about making their community a safer and more enjoyable place to ride, work and play to come together and connect. Please join us!
